Some people suffer a sharp burning sensation at application and removal of the C. This study investigated the effect of playing a standardized hypnosis recording on the anxiety and pain associated with the use of capsaicin patch.
Standardized hypnotic message is easy to use, comfortable
and relieves pain, discomfort and anxiety linked with the application of at
least a single capsaicin patch in cancer patients.
Some people suffer a sharp burning sensation at
application and removal of the C. This study investigated the effect of playing a
standardized hypnosis recording on the anxiety and pain associated with the use
of capsaicin patch.
The numerical rating scales were
used to evaluate the advantages of the intervention used on pain and anxiety.
All the patients had an application of the capsaicin patch, comprising the
likelihood for the patient to use a cold patch. Sixty-nine patients were
assigned arbitrarily into three groups depending on the type of intervention
used during capsaicin patch application. i.e. “Hypnosis group where a
standardized hypnotic message was played, or the “Music group” where soothing
music was played and the “Standard group” (no intervention).
No profound difference in pain scores between groups
was reported. Anxiety was considerably lower in the hypnosis group than the
standard application following the application. No significant difference
amongst the standard group and music group, or between the hypnosis group and
music group was found.
Listening to a standardized hypnotic message during
capsaicin patch application can significantly lower anxiety and discomfort.
